As you might know, I’m currently training for my first 100 mile trail run in a few months (read training phase 1 recap here, training phase 2 recap here, and my time at Health & Fitness Week with my coach). I still need to write my Phase 3 recap – hopefully I can do that… Continue reading Orion 50 mile Beach Ultra 2018
I’ve been working with Dr. Doug Graham, author of The 80/10/10 Diet among numerous other books, for the last 9 months or so. My journey with him began before my 100km race early this year. After an extremely successful outcome, I decided to continue working with him and train for my first 100 miler (read… Continue reading My Experience at Dr. Doug Graham’s Health & Fitness Week 2018
Phase 2 of 4 nine week training phases is now complete which means that my training for my first 100 mile trail run is now half way over (see my Phase 1 recap here)! It’s crazy to think that 18 weeks ago I set sail on this journey and that I only have 18 weeks… Continue reading Training Phase 2: 100 Miles
After my awesome 100km trail run this spring, I decided to make the jump and signed up for my first 100 mile trail run late this year. The 2018/2019 run season is the last run season of my 30’s and what a better way to round out this decade than with my first century run!… Continue reading Training Phase 1: 100 Miles

It was in San Angelo, TX, hosted by Trail Racing Over Texas (TROT) at the San… Continue reading My First 100km Trail Run
So as you may know, this weekend I competed in and completed my first ever 100km race in Trail Racing Over Texas’s Crazy Desert Trail Run in San Angelo State Park! It was totally epic and I am planning a hugely thorough blog post devoted to it that will cover my nutrition before/during/after the race,… Continue reading Guest Blog Posts: From My 100km Race Crew!
Gosh it’s been a long time since I’ve posted and even longer since I’ve posted regularly. A lot has happened in the last year starting with Scott’s transition into his new job and just dealing with life with three pre-schoolers as a Stay At Home Mom. To be honest, the short version is that 2017… Continue reading The Raw Outlaw
Okay I have to share my latest obsession with y’all: Apple Cider Vinegar based (ACV) elixirs and blends. I’ve used ACV for a long time in my vegan cooking, especially for recipes such as raw salad dressings and sauces. And I’d heard of people drinking it straight, but had never tried that or any kind of ACV elixir or… Continue reading My Latest Obsession: Apple Cider Vinegar Elixirs
“It’s never about deprivation, it’s about becoming who we were meant to be all along.” I can’t remember where I saw this quote, but I absolutely love it. For me, instead of focusing on what I am missing out on when I make healthy changes and improvements to my life, I’ve had the most success… Continue reading Part I: My 1st Juice Feast
I’m just coming off 30 days of amazing, delicious, healthy, raw, plant-based cuisine and I’m feeling extremely happy and quite light and lean! In fact, I’m about 10 lbs lighter! And I’m feeling so fabulous that I will likely continue to maintain a raw vegan diet for a majority of my daily life moving forward… Continue reading My Rainbow Food
